Devin's Blog # 8 Brief Ratings/Reviews of TV Shows I Watch

The Walking Dead- See Post # 7

Person of Interest- 8/10 This show has an interesting premise and characters, but needs to develop the characters and main points more.

X-Men Anime - 6/10 Not a bad X-Men Cartoon, but has few X-Men and a story I do not understand.

Death Valley- 8/10 The only thing I can stand watching on MTV, has some funny moments and a zany story.

Ghost Hunters- 7/10 As always you will have hit or miss episodes, but had a horrible Halloween live special.

Ghost Adventures- 7.5 Slightly better than Ghost Hunters, but has had some weird moments.

The Borgias- 9/10  A great first season and cannot wait for the second. Great acting by Jeremy Irons and the cast of characters are the right choice for the show.

Game of Thrones- 9.5/10 Having never read the novels. HBO has developed an awesome show that delivers a great political, medieval, and fantasy show. The show also left the first season with enough power to be intrigued with the second season. 

The Killing- 8.5/10 I'm not a fan of detective or cop shows, but The Killing is interesting enough that it doesn't follow other cop shows of a criminal of the week plot and gives the audience clues to try and find the killer, the only downfall of the show is that it can be very slow at times.

Mad Men- 9.5/10 Another awesome season of Mad Men as Jon Hamm continues to be awesome as Don Draper. Hope season 5 will has more Don Draper craziness.

Breaking Bad- 9/10 Although it had its slow moments, Breaking Bad's last few episodes were pretty epic and a season finale that will bring the final season into utter chaos for the characters.

Kamen Rider Fourze- 9/10 A great follow up season to the excellent Kamen Rider OOO series. Has funny and likable characters along with good action.

Kaizou Sentai Gokaiger- 8/10 Good 35th anniversary Super Sentai show, but wish the past Super Sentai fighters would fight more along side the Gokaigers.

Garo Makai Senki- 9/10 A great continuation of the Garo series. The CGI effects are a lot better and the choreographed fight scenes are excellent. The plot is starting to develop into maybe something epic, but only time will tell.

Hell on Wheels- 9.5/10 A surprise series for myself because I thought it wouldn't be good, but great character development, along with great historical accuracy. Most of the characters are interesting and leaves the show with many different angles to go with.

Being Human (Original UK Version)- 9.5/10 An awesome series overall and an ending to season 3 that will change the series dramatically. 

Being Human (US Version)- 6.5/10 Although this version had some okay moments, it doesn't come anywhere close to the UK version in terms of story, characters, and character development. I will watch season 2 in hope they go with a completely different story, than in season 1 where they took most of season 1 of the UK version's plot, changed some things, and ended up not being interesting in the end.
